I have Mozilla Developer Preview 3.7 Alpha 3 configured to "Show my home page," but it doesn't (http:www.yahoo.com). I get a blank tab. If I click on the Home button, the home page will be loaded. This started after Mozilla Developer Preview 3.7 Alpha 2 was updated to Alpha 3. 

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Start Mozilla Developer Preview 3.7 Alpha 3
2.1st tab is blank
3.Click Home button & home page is loaded
Actual Results:  
Home page doesn't load until the Home button is clicked.

Expected Results:  
Mozilla Developer Preview 3.7 Alpha 3 should load the Home page whenever it starts.

With the update to Mozilla Developer Preview 3.7 Alpha 4, the problem may be resolved.

You can also try to reproduce in Firefox 4 Beta 8 or later, there are many improvements in the new version, http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-beta.html

Since 3.7 isn't a current version, I've moved on to FF 4. It's no longer an issue for me & hasn't been since 4/13/2010 when I reported it was WFM.
